Darkness POV
me and shadows relationship has been going quite well. I love everything about the dark hedgehog. His look, the way he acts and especially how I'm the only one that gets to see his soft side. It makes me feel very special. Shadow promises to protect from things no matter what but there is some things he just can't protect me from. I suffer from many things like depression, anxiety, and many other things. Shadow can't protect me from things like this but he tries his best to. To be honest he is helping. His presence alone makes every bad thought, every bad feeling go away. I feel safe in his arms. But some days I'm not sure if that's enough. I have those dark days where it seems like no sunlight can break through. Maybe Shadow can break me out until then I don't know what'll happen. I sit in my bedroom having the same thoughts run through my head. "You're ugly. Worthles. Useless." People aren't very nice and my low self esteem doesn't help much either. Questions run through my mind. "Am i ugly? Am i worthless. Am i useless?" I can't but feel these things are true. If i'm so useless might as well leave while i can. I grab a razor from my drawer and examine the blade. "I-i haven't used this in so long I almost forgot where it was." I though as i slowly lowered the blade to my wrist. I slowly insert it into my skin. The pain blocking out everything else. I almost enjoy it. I continue going across my wrist when a hand firmly grabs my hand. I gasp and look up to see Shadow. He looks pissed but once he saw how upset I was his face softened. "Why?" Was the only thing he asked. That question kinda caught me off guard. I didn't really have a reason. What was i supposed to say some people said some mean things and i agreed with them so i decided to cut myself. 'wow i'm pathetic.' Shadow huffed waiting for an answer. I just couldn't give him an answer. My eyes swelled with tears. Before i knew it they were coming out my eyes controllably. Shadow didn't say anything he just lowered himself down to my level and wrapped him arms around me. "Shhh its ok." He says as he rubs circles on my back. "It'll be all over soon. I'm here now." I lay my head in his chest fur and calm down alittle. I look up and smile at him. "I love you so much you know that?" He smirks and pecks my lips. "Yeah i do." I don't know what i'll do without him
